Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given,
made or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such
action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Obligors. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are
herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this

execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him or her the execution thereof. Where such

Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of Securities of
such series, provided that the Issuer may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any declaration of acceleration referred to
in Section 602, (iii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 607(b) or (iv) any direction referred to in Section 612. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding
Securities of the relevant series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder
unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Issuer from setting a
new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in
this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant
to this paragraph, the Issuer, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant
series in the manner set forth in Section 106. 
 With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the Issuer may
designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given
to the Trustee in writing, and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 106, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set
pursuant to this Section, the Issuer shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph.

 Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so
with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount. 

Section 105 Notices, Etc., to Trustee and Issuer.

 (1) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Issuer shall be
sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, or 

  
 10 












 (2) the Issuer by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every
purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Issuer addressed to it at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument or at any
other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Issuer. 
 The Trustee shall have the right to accept and act upon
instructions, including funds transfer instructions (“Instructions”) given pursuant to this Indenture and delivered using Electronic Means; provided, however, that the Issuer and/or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall provide to the
Trustee an incumbency certificate listing officers with the authority to provide such Instructions (“Authorized Officers”) and containing specimen signatures of such Authorized Officers, which incumbency certificate shall be amended
by the Issuer and/or the Guarantor, as applicable, whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Issuer and/or the Guarantor, as applicable, elects to give the Trustee Instructions using Electronic Means and the Trustee in its
discretion elects to act upon such Instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such Instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Issuer and the Guarantor understand and agree that the Trustee cannot determine the identity of the actual sender
of such Instructions and that the Trustee shall conclusively presume that directions that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Officer listed on the incumbency certificate provided to the Trustee have been sent by such Authorized Officer. The
Issuer and the Guarantor shall be responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Officers transmit such Instructions to the Trustee and that the Issuer, the Guarantor and all Authorized Officers are solely responsible to safeguard the use and
confidentiality of applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys upon receipt by the Issuer and/or the Guarantor, as applicable. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or
indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such Instructions notwithstanding such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The Issuer and the Guarantor agree: (i) to assume all
risks arising out of the use of Electronic Means to submit Instructions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties;
(ii) that it is fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting Instructions to the Trustee and that there may be more secure methods of transmitting Instructions than the method(s) selected by
the Issuer and/or the Guarantor, as applicable; (iii) that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of Instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its
particular needs and circumstances; and (iv) to notify the Trustee immediately upon learning of any compromise or unauthorized use of the security procedures. 

Section 106 Notice to Holders; Waiver. 

Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly
provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his or her address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if
any), prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such
notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the
equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 

  
 11 












 In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause
it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 

Section 107 Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. 

If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act which is required thereunder to be a part
of and govern this Indenture, the latter provision shall control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act which may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to
this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be.

Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities (other than a provision of any Security which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section)) payment of interest or principal
(and premium, if any) need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or
at the Stated Maturity.

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Issuer may deliver Securities of any series executed
by the Issuer to the Trustee for authentication, together with an Issuer Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Issuer Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. If the form or
terms of the Securities of the series have been established by or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions as permitted by Sections 201 and 301, in authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture
in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be provided with, and (subject to Section 701) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating: 

(a) if the form of such Securities has been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 201, that such form
has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 
 Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.


  
 23 












 No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory
for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual, facsimile or electronic signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be
conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the
Issuer, and the Issuer shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 309, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall
never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 
 Section 304 Temporary Securities. 

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Issuer may execute, and upon Issuer Order the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with
such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities. 

If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Issuer will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without
unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at
the office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more definitive Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall in
all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series and tenor. 
 Section 305
Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. 
 The Issuer shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a
register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and
transfers of Securities as herein provided. 
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of a series at the office or
agency of the Issuer in a Place of Payment for that series, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series, of any
authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount. 

  
 24 












 At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities
of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer
shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the
same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 

Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Issuer or the Trustee) be
duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing. 

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 304, 1006 or 1207 not involving any transfer. 

If the Securities of any series (or of any series and specified tenor) are to be redeemed in part, the Issuer shall not be required
(a) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Securities of that series (or of that series and specified tenor, as the case may be) during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice
of redemption of any such Securities selected for redemption under Section 1203 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (b) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole
or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. 
 The provisions of clauses (a), (b), (c) and
(d) below shall apply only to Global Securities: 
 (a) Each Global Security authenticated under this Indenture shall be registered in
the name of the Depositary designated for such Global Security or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depositary or a nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Security shall constitute a single Security for all purposes of
this Indenture. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for
Securities registered, and no transfer of a Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (i) such Depositary (A) has
notified the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or (B) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and such Depositary provided reasonable notice to the Issuer or
the Trustee and no successor depositary is obtained (ii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to such Global Security or (iii) there shall exist such circumstances, if any, in addition to or in lieu
of the foregoing as have been specified for this purpose as contemplated by Section 301.

 (c) Subject to clause (b) above, any exchange of a Global Security for other Securities
may be made in whole or in part, and all Securities issued in exchange for a Global Security or any portion thereof shall be registered in such names as the Depositary for such Global Security shall direct. 

(d) Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any
portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Section, Section 304, 306, 1006 or 1207 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person
other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof. 
 Section 306 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen
Securities. 
 If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

If there shall be delivered to the Issuer and the Trustee (a) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Security and (b) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona
fide purchaser, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding. 
 In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and
payable, the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 
 Upon the issuance of any new Security
under this Section, the Issuer may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected
therewith. 
 Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall
constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section are exclusive and
shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

 Section 307 Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 

Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities, interest on any Security which is
payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for
such interest. 
 Any interest on any Security of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any
Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the
Issuer, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (a) or (b) below: 
 (a) The Issuer may elect to make payment of any
Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be
fixed in the following manner. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit
with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money
when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not
more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer of such Special
Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Issuer, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be given to each Holder of Securities of such series in the manner set forth
in Section 106, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons
in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (b). 

(b) The Issuer may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the
requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Issuer to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such
manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security
delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 

  
 27 












 Section 308 Persons Deemed Owners. 

Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may
treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and any premium and (subject to Section 307) any interest on such Security and for all other purposes
whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Trustee nor any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

Section 309 Cancellation. 

All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall,
if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Issuer may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered
hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Issuer has not
issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by
this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee in its customary manner. 

Section 310 Computation of Interest. 

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series
shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 

Section 311 CUSIP Numbers. 

The Issuer in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use
“CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as
contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer will
promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

 ARTICLE FOUR 

GUARANTEES 

Section 401 Applicability of Article; Guarantee. 

(a) As of April 1, 2022, all Securities previously issued under the Indenture and Outstanding shall have the benefit of the Guarantees as
set forth in this Article Four, and, if the Issuer elects to issue any series of on any date after April 1, 2022 with the benefit of the Guarantees as set forth in this Article then the provisions of this Article Four (with such modifications
thereto as may be specified pursuant to Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities issued after April 1, 2022), will be applicable to such Securities. Each reference in this Article Four to a “Security” or “the
Securities” refers to the Securities of the particular series as to which provision has been made for such Guarantees (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all Securities which, as of April 2, 2022 have been previously issued under the
Indenture and are Outstanding). If more than one series of Securities as to which such provision has been made are Outstanding at any time, the provisions of this Article Four shall be applied separately to each such series. 

(b) Subject to this Article Four, the Guarantor fully and unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Security of any series issued with the
benefit of Guarantees and which Security has been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, such Security or the obligations of
the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that: 
 (i) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Security will be
promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on such Security, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the
Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and 

(ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Securities of that series or any of such other obligations,
that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance
so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantor will be obligated to pay the same immediately. The Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 

(c) The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of
the Securities of any series issued with the benefit of Guarantees or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Securities of that series with respect to any provisions hereof or
thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor, other than payment in full of all
obligations under 

  
 29 












 
the Securities of that series. The Guarantor in respect of a series of Securities hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency
or bankruptcy of the Issuer in respect of that series, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of
the obligations contained in such Securities and this Indenture. 
 (d) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to
return to the Issuer, the Guarantor or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantor, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent
theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect. 
 (e) The Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of
subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. The Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the
Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article Six hereof for the purposes of its Guarantee notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such
acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article Six hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become
due and payable by the Guarantor for the purpose of its Guarantee. 
 Section 402 Limitation on Guarantor Liability. 

The Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Securities of any series issued with the benefit of Guarantees, each Holder, hereby confirms that it
is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of the Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar
federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of the Guarantor will, after giving effect to any maximum
amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of the Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, result in the obligations of the Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 

Section 403 Execution and Delivery of Guarantee. 

For all Securities issued after April 1, 2021 as to which the Issuer elects to issue with the benefit of the Guarantees as provided
herein, to evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 401 in respect of Securities of a series issued with the benefit of Guarantees, the Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Guarantee substantially in the form as shall be
established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto or approved from time to time pursuant to Board Resolutions in accordance with Section 301, will be endorsed by an officer of the Guarantor on each Security of that series authenticated
and delivered by the Trustee and that this Indenture will be executed on behalf of the Guarantor by one of its officers. 

  
 30 












 The Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 401 will remain in
full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security of that series a notation of such Guarantee. 
 If an officer
whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security of that series on which a Guarantee is endorsed, such Guarantee will be valid nevertheless. 

The delivery of any Security of a series issued with the benefit of Guarantees by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder,
will constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantor (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all Securities which, as of April 1, 2022, have been previously issued, and authenticated by the
Trustee, and which remain Outstanding). 
 ARTICLE FIVE 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 

Section 501 Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 

This Indenture and any related Guarantee shall upon Issuer Request cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of
registration of transfer or exchange of Securities herein expressly provided for and other rights and remedies referenced herein), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture, when 
 (a) either 

(i) all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (A) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or
stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 306 and (B) Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or
discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 1103) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or (ii) all such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation 

(A) have become due and payable, or 

(B) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or 

(C) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of
redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer, 
 and the Issuer, in the case of (A), (B) or (C) above, has
deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee an amount of money sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal and any premium and interest
to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be; 

  
 31 












 (b) the Issuer has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Issuer;
and 
 (c) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. 
 Notwithstanding the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Issuer to the Trustee under Section 707, the obligations of the Trustee to any Authenticating Agent under Section 714 and, if money shall have been deposited with the
Trustee pursuant to subclause (ii) of clause (a) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 502 and the last paragraph of Section 1103 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge. 

Section 502 Application of Trust Money. 

Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1103, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 501 shall
be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may
determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal and any premium and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee. 

ARTICLE SIX 
 REMEDIES

 Section 601 Events of Default. 

“Event of Default,” wherever used herein with respect to Securities of any series, means any one of the following events
(whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or
governmental body): 
 (a) default in the payment of the principal of or any premium on any Security of that series at its Maturity; or 

(b) default in the payment of any interest upon any Security of that series when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default
for a period of 30 days; or 
 (c) default in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, when and as due by the terms of a Security of that
series and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; or 

  
 32 












 (d) default in the performance of, or breach of, any covenant of an Obligor in this
Indenture (other than a covenant a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with or which has been expressly included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of a series of Securities other than
that series), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60 days after there has been given, by first class mail, to the Obligors by the Trustee or to the Obligors and the Trustee by the Holders of at least a majority in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; or 

(e) a default under any bond, debenture, note or other evidence of indebtedness of an Obligor, or under any mortgage, indenture or other
instrument of an Obligor (including a default with respect to Securities of any series other than that series) under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured any indebtedness of such Obligor (or by any Subsidiary, the repayment of
which such Obligor has guaranteed or for which such Obligor is directly responsible or liable as obligor or guarantor), whether such indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created, which default shall constitute a failure to pay an aggregate
principal amount exceeding $__________ of such indebtedness when due and payable after the expiration of any applicable grace period with respect thereto and shall have resulted in such indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount exceeding
$__________ becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable, without such indebtedness having been discharged, or such acceleration having been rescinded or annulled, within a
period of 10 days after there shall have been given, by first class mail, to such Obligor by the Trustee or to such Obligor and the Trustee by the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series a
written notice specifying such default and requiring such Obligor to cause such indebtedness to be discharged or cause such acceleration to be rescinded or annulled and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; or

 (f) an Obligor or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law (i) commences a voluntary case,
(ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case, or (iii) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, or 

(g) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: (i) is for relief against an Obligor or any
Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case, (ii) appoints a Custodian of an Obligor or any Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of either of its property, or (iii) orders the liquidation of an Obligor or any
Significant Subsidiary, and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 90 days; or 
 (h) any Guarantee is not, or is claimed by
the Guarantor not to be, in full force and effect; or 
 (i) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that series.


  
 33 












 Section 602 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. 

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 601(f) or 601(g)) with respect to Securities of any series at
the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than a majority of the principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount of all the Securities
of that series (or, if any Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified by the terms thereof) to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing
to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified amount) shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in clause (f) or (g) of
Section 601 with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs, the principal amount of all the Securities of that series (or, if any Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the
principal amount of such Securities as may be specified by the terms thereof) shall automatically, and without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, become immediately due and payable. 

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree
for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may
rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: 
 (a) the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay

 (i) all overdue interest on all Securities of that series, 

(ii) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities of that series which have become due otherwise than by such
declaration of acceleration and any interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, 
 (iii) to
the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and (iv) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; and 
 (b) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of
that series, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in
Section 613. 
 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

The Trustee shall not be required to act upon an Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer has received written notice of such Event of
Default. 

  
 34 












 Section 603 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

 The Issuer covenants that if: 

(a) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a
period of 30 days, or 
 (b) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity
thereof, 
 the Issuer will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable
on such Securities for principal and any premium and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal and premium and on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed
therefor in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the amounts owed to the Trustee, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
counsel. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion
proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem necessary to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific
enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 

Section 604 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

In case of any judicial proceeding relative to an Obligor (or any other obligor upon the Securities), its property or its creditors, the
Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In
particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other
similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee
any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 707. 

No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder
any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding; provided, however, that
the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a creditors’ or other similar committee. 

  
 35 












 Section 605 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. 

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of
any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after
provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

 Section 606 Application of Money Collected. 

Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee
and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal or any premium or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 

FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 707, 

SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and any premium and interest on the Securities in respect of which
or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal and any premium and interest, respectively, and 

THIRD: To the Person entitled to receive the same; if no other Person shall be entitled thereto, then to the Issuer, or as a court of
competent jurisdiction may direct. 
 Section 607 Limitation on Suits. 

No Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this
Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: 
 (a) such Holder has previously
given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series; 
 (b) the Holders of not
less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 

(c) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to
be incurred in compliance with such request; 
 (d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity
has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 

  
 36 












 (e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during
such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series; 

it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any
provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the
manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders. 
 Section 608 Unconditional Right of Holders
to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall
have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and any premium and (subject to Section 307) interest on such Security on the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case
of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 

Section 609 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored
severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 

Section 610 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last
paragraph of Section 306, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be
cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent
assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
 Section 611 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default
shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as
often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 

  
 37 












 Section 612 Control by Holders. 

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such series, provided that: 

(a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and 

(b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. 

Section 613 Waiver of Past Defaults. 

The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all
the Securities of such series waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default: 
 (a) in
the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Security of such series, or 
 (b) in respect of a covenant or provision
hereof which under Article Ten cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected. 

Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for
every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 614 Undertaking for Costs. 

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered
or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) against any such party litigant, in
the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act. Except as otherwise provided in the Trust Indenture Act, this section does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 608 hereof, or a suit by
Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities. 
 Section 615 Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws.

 The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner
whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any 

  
 38 












 
usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it
may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every
such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
 ARTICLE SEVEN 

THE TRUSTEE 

Section 701 Certain Duties and Responsibilities. 

The duties and responsibilities of the Trustee shall be as provided by the Trust Indenture Act. 

(a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, 

(i) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no
implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
 (ii) in the absence of bad
faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this
Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to
the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). 

(b) In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs. 

(c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent
failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that 
 (i) this Subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect
of Subsection (a) of this Section; 
 (ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith
by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 

  
 39 












 (iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or
omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series; and 

(iv) notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity
against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 
 (d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this
Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section. 

Section 702 Notice of Defaults. 

If a default occurs hereunder with respect to Securities of any series, the Trustee shall give the Holders of Securities of such series notice
of such default as and to the extent provided by the Trust Indenture Act; provided, however, that in the case of any default of the character specified in clause (d) of Section 501 with respect to Securities of such series, no such notice
to Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with
respect to Securities of such series. 
 Section 703 Certain Rights of Trustee. 

Subject to the provisions of Section 701: 

(a) the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
party or parties (but need not investigate the accuracy of any mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein); 
 (b) any request
or direction of the Issuer mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Issuer Request or Issuer Order, and any resolution of the Board shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution; 

(c) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to
taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officers’ Certificate; 

  
 40 












 (d) the Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice of such counsel or
any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon; 

(e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction
of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with
such request or direction; 
 (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any
resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further
inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer, personally or by
agent or attorney at the expense of the Issuer and shall incur no liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation; 
 (g)
the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or
attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder; 
 (h) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, or omitted to be
taken by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; 

(i) in no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive, or consequential loss or damage of any kind
whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action; 

(j) the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless written notice of any event which is in fact such
a default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture; 

(k) the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be
indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder; and 

(l) the Trustee may request that the Issuer deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized
at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture. 

  
 41 












 Section 704 Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. 

The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the
statements of the Obligors, and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. Neither
the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the Issuer of Securities or the proceeds thereof. 

Section 705 May Hold Securities. 

The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Issuer, in its individual or any
other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 708 and 713, may otherwise deal with the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar
or such other agent. 
 Section 706 Money Held in Trust. 

Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall
be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Issuer. 
 Section 707
Compensation, Reimbursement and Indemnification. 
 The Issuer agrees: 

(1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder (which
compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 

(2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all expenses, disbursements
and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as
shall have been caused by its own negligence or willful misconduct; and 
 (3) to fully indemnify each of the Trustee or any
predecessor Trustee and their agents for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on their part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or
administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of their powers or duties hereunder. 

  
 42 












 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default,
the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar
law. 
 The Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities as to all property and funds held by it hereunder for any amount owing it or
any predecessor Trustee pursuant to this Section 707, except with respect to funds held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of particular Securities. 

The benefits of this Section shall survive the termination of the Indenture and resignation or removal of the Trustee. 

Section 708 Conflicting Interests. 

If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate
such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture. To the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have a
conflicting interest by virtue of being a trustee under this Indenture with respect to Securities of more than one series or a trustee under those certain Indentures between the Issuer and the Trustee dated as of September 6, 2002, as of
November 20, 2006 and as of March 15, 2010, each as amended and supplemented. 
 Section 709 Corporate Trustee Required;
Eligibility. 
 There shall at all times be one (and only one) Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of each series, which
may be Trustee hereunder for Securities of one or more other series. Each Trustee shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such, and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If any such
Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section and to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the combined
capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall cease to be
eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. 

Section 710 Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 

No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the
acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 711. 
 The Trustee may
resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Issuer. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 711 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee
within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Issuer, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such
series. 

  
 43 












 The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act
of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, upon 30 days’ written notice, delivered to the Trustee and to the Issuer. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by
Section 711 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after such removal, the retiring Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Issuer, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of such series. 
 If at any time: 

(1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 708 after written request therefor by the Issuer or by any Holder who
has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or 
 (2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under
Section 709 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Issuer or by any such Holder, or 
 (3) the
Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs
for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then, in any such case, (A) the Issuer by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (B) subject to Section 514, any Holder who has been
a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of such Holder and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment
of a successor Trustee or Trustees. 
 If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in
the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Issuer, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being
understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall
comply with the applicable requirements of Section 711. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed
by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Issuer and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in
accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 711, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer. If no successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Issuer or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 711, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at
least six months may, on behalf of such Holder and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 

  
 44 












 The Issuer shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with
respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series to all Holders of Securities of such series in the manner provided in Section 106. Each notice shall include the
name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 

Section 711 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 

In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Issuer and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any
further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Issuer or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges,
execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring
Trustee hereunder. 
 In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not
all) series, the Obligors, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment
and which (a) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities
of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (b) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm
that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (c) shall
add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental
indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder
administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee
relates; but, on request of the Issuer or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of
that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates. 

  
 45 












 Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Issuer shall execute any and all instruments
for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in the first or second preceding paragraph, as the case may be. 

No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible
under this Article. 
 Section 712 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. 

Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such
corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not
delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee
had itself authenticated such Securities. 
 Section 713 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuer. 

If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject
to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Issuer (or any such other obligor). 

Section 714 Appointment of Authenticating Agent. 

The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on
behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon original issue and upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 306, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled
to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the
Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Issuer and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia,
authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of
condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, 

  
 46 












 
the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any
time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. 

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation
resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an
Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Obligors. The Trustee may at any
time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Obligors. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Issuer and shall give notice of such appointment in the
manner provided in Section 106 to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all
the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section. 

The Issuer agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section. 

If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed
thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form: 

This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates).

It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but
it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. 
 Section 1003 Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

 In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications

ARTICLE ELEVEN 

COVENANTS 

Section 1101 Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. 

The Issuer covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of and any
premium and interest on the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of the Securities and this Indenture. 

Section 1102 Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

The Issuer will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or agency where Securities of that series may be
presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may
be served. The Issuer will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to
furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Issuer hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 
 The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies
where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the
Issuer of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Issuer will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in
the location of any such other office or agency.

 Section 1103 Money for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust. 

If the Issuer shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, the Issuer will, on or before each due
date of the principal of or any premium or interest on any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal and any premium and interest so becoming
due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 

Whenever the Issuer shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities, the Issuer will, prior to each due date of the
principal of or any premium or interest on any Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such amount, such sum to be held as provided by the Trust Indenture Act, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the
Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 
 The Issuer will cause each Paying Agent (other than the
Trustee) for any series of Securities to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will (1) comply with the
provisions of the Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent and (2) during the continuance of any default by the Obligors (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of any payment in respect of the
Securities of that series, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent for payment in respect of the Securities of that series. 

The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by
Issuer Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Issuer or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Issuer or such Paying
Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. 

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of or any
premium or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on Issuer Request, or (if then held by the Issuer ) shall be
discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and
all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuer cause to be published once, in a
newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in , notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the
date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer. 

  
 55 












 Section 1104 Statement by Officers as to Default. 

The Issuer will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Issuer ending after the date hereof, an
Officers’ Certificate, stating whether or not, to the best knowledge of the signers thereof, either of the Obligors is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (without regard
to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and, if either Obligor shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which they may have knowledge. The Issuer will also deliver to the
Trustee, promptly after an officer of the Issuer becomes aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the nature and status of such Event of Default and, if then formulated, the action that the Issuer
proposes to take with respect thereto. 
 Section 1105 Existence. 

Subject to Article Nine, the Issuer will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its
existence, rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise if the Board shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the
conduct of the business of the Issuer. 
 Section 1106 Waiver of Certain Covenants. 

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of such series, the Obligors may, with respect to the
Securities of any series, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in any covenant provided pursuant to clause (r) of Section 301 or clause (b) or (g) of Section 1001 for the
benefit of the Holders of such series or in Section 1105, if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive
such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver
shall become effective, the obligations of the Issuer and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 

Section 1107 Economic Sanctions. 

(a) Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor represents that neither it nor, to the knowledge of the Issuer or the Guarantor, any of its
affiliates, subsidiaries, directors or officers are the target or subject of any sanctions enforced by the US Government, (including, without limitation, the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the US Department of the Treasury or the US Department
of State), the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, Her Majesty’s Treasury, or other relevant sanctions authority (collectively “Sanctions”); 

(b) Each of the Issuer covenants that it will not directly or indirectly use any payments made pursuant to this agreement, (i) to fund or
facilitate any activities of or business with any person who, at the time of such funding or facilitation, is the subject or target of Sanctions, or (ii) to fund or facilitate any activities of or business with any country or territory that is
the target or subject of Sanctions.

 Section 1202
Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. 
 The election of the Issuer to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution or
in another manner specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities. In case of any redemption at the election of the Issuer of less than all the Securities of any series (including any such redemption affecting only a single

series to be redeemed and, if applicable, of the tenor of the Securities to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere
in this Indenture, the Issuer shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction. 

Section 1203 Selection of Securities to Be Redeemed. 

If less than all of the Securities of any series are to be redeemed (unless all the Securities of such series and of a specified tenor are to
be redeemed or unless such redemption affects only a single Security), the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously
called for redemption, in accordance with applicable depositary procedures which may provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the principal amount of any Security of such series, provided that the unredeemed portion of the principal
amount of any Security shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security. If less than all the Securities of such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed (unless
such redemption affects only a single Security), the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, from the Outstanding Securities of such series and specified tenor not previously called
for redemption in accordance with the preceding sentence. 
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Securities

 57 












 The provisions of the two preceding paragraphs shall not apply with respect to any
redemption affecting only a single Security, whether such Security is to be redeemed in whole or in part. In the case of any such redemption in part, the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the Security shall be in an authorized
denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security. 
 For all purposes of this Indenture,
unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities which has
been or is to be redeemed. 
 Section 1204 Notice of Redemption. 

Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed or pursuant to applicable Depositary procedures not less than
15 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at his or her address appearing in the Security Register. 

All notices of redemption shall state: 

(a) the Redemption Date, 
 (b) the
Redemption Price, 
 (c) if less than all the Outstanding Securities of any series consisting of more than a single Security are to be
redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption of any such Securities, the principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed and, if less than all the Outstanding Securities of any series consisting of a single
Security are to be redeemed, the principal amount of the particular Security to be redeemed, 
 (d) that on the Redemption Date, the
Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and, if applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date, 

(e) that on the Redemption Date, if such is the case, the right of the holders of each such Security to convert the Securities shall terminate,

 (f) the place or places where each such Security is to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, 

(g) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case, and 

(h) applicable “CUSIP” numbers. 

Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Issuer shall be given by the Issuer or, at the Issuer’s request
and provision to the Trustee of such notice provisions at least two days prior to the date the notice of redemption is to be given to the Holders, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer and shall be irrevocable. 

  
 58 












 Section 1205 Deposit of Redemption Price. 

Prior to any Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer is acting as its own Paying
Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1103) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities which
are to be redeemed on that date. 
 Section 1206 Securities Payable on Redemption Date. 

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at
the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for
redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Issuer at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 301, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the
relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 307. 
 If any Security called for redemption shall not be
so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and any premium shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. 

Section 1207 Securities Redeemed in Part. 

Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Issuer or the Trustee so
requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Issuer shall execute, and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series and of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal
amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.

in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to any Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities as and to the extent provided for by the terms of such Securities;
provided that the Securities to be so credited have not been previously so credited. The Securities to be so credited shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price, as specified in the Securities so to be
redeemed, for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. 

Section 1303 Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 

Not less than 30 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any Securities, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’
Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for such Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which
is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities pursuant to Section 1302 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 15 days prior to each such sinking fund payment date, the Securities to be
redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date shall be selected in the manner specified in Section 1203 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Issuer in the manner provided in
Section 1204. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1206 and 1207.

 Section 1402 Defeasance and Discharge. 

Upon the Issuer’s exercise of its option (if any) to have this Section applied to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case
may be, the Obligors shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to such Securities as provided in this Section on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1404 are satisfied (hereinafter called
“Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Defeasance means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Securities and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such
Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), subject to the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated
or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of such Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 1404 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of and any premium and
interest on such Securities when payments are due, (b) the Obligors’ obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 304, 305, 306, 1102 and 1103, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder
and (d) this Article. Subject to compliance with this Article, the Issuer may exercise its option (if any) to have this Section applied to any Securities notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option (if any) to have Section 1403
applied to such Securities. 
 Section 1403 Covenant Defeasance. 

Upon the Issuer’s exercise of its option (if any) to have this Section applied to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case
may be, (a) the Obligors shall be released from their obligations under clause (c) of Section 901 and any covenants provided pursuant to clause (r) of Section 301, Section 1105 or clause (b) or (g) of
Section 1001 for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, and (b) the occurrence of any event specified in clause (d) of Section 601 (with respect to any of clause (c) of Section 901 and any such covenants
provided pursuant to clause (r) of Section 301, Section 1105 or clause (b) or (g) of Section 1001) or clause (e) of Section 601 shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default, in each case with respect
to such Securities as provided in this Section on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1404 are satisfied (hereinafter called “Covenant Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with
respect to such Securities, the Obligors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such specified Section (to the extent so specified in the case of clause (d) of
Section 601), whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or Article or by reason of any reference in any such Section or Article to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the
remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby.

any series of Securities and any related Guarantee, as the case may be:

pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefits of the Holders of such Securities, (i) money in an amount, or (ii) U.S. Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof
in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (iii) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent

or interest evidenced by such depositary receipt. 
 (b) In the event of an election to have Section 1402 apply to any Securities or any
series of Securities, as the case may be, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (i) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or
(ii) since the date of this instrument, there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case (i) or (ii) to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of such Securities will
not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, Defeasance and discharge to be effected with respect to such Securities and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at

understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until after such 90th day).

not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act (assuming all Securities are in default within the meaning of such Act).

instrument to which the Obligors are parties or by which it is bound.

 Section 1405 Deposited Money and U.S.
Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Miscellaneous Provisions. 
 Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of
Section 1103, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or other qualifying trustee (solely for purposes of this Section and Section 1406, the Trustee and any such other trustee
are referred to collectively as the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 1404 in respect of any Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to
the payment, either directly or through any such Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal
and any premium and interest, but money so held in trust need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

  
 63 












 The Issuer shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed
on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1404 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of
Outstanding Securities. 
 Anything in this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from
time to time upon Issuer Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 1404 with respect to any Securities which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in
a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect the Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, with respect to such Securities. 

Section 1406 Reinstatement. 

If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with this Article with respect to any Securities by reason of any
order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the obligations under this Indenture and such Securities from which the Obligors have been discharged or released
pursuant to Section 1402 or 1403 shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article with respect to such Securities, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all money held in
trust pursuant to Section 1405 with respect to such Securities in accordance with this Article; provided, however, that if the Obligors make any payment of principal of or any premium or interest on any such Security following such
reinstatement of its obligations, the Obligors shall be subrogated to the rights (if any) of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money so held in trust. 

This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such
counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. In proving the existence of this Indenture it shall not be necessary to produce more than one copy.
